I presume it's something that's left over from whatever his last job was.

 

[bocadillo]

Good grief. It was for something that happened just over five years ago and in his job before last.

McGhee has an outstanding ban hanging over his head following an infamous outburst at Pittodrie during the latter stages of his Motherwell tenure.
The experienced coach was sent to the stand by referee Alan Muir during his team’s 7-2 defeat in the Granite City on February 15, 2017.
He then reacted angrily towards a Dons fan who was surreptitiously filming him. That footage swiftly went viral.
McGhee, the ex-Scotland No.2 was subsequently found guilty of breaching disciplinary rule 203, specifically using ‘offensive, abusing and/or insulting language and gestures towards a match official’.
A five-match ban was handed down, in addition to a further game which had been suspended from a prior misdemeanour.
However, McGhee had already left Motherwell before the verdict was delivered.
Despite suggestions that he may be forced to serve the ban at his next club, Barnet, the Scottish FA opted not to ask FIFA to enforce that.

Maguire heads United in front at Leeds.

We could do with Leeds, Everton and Villa staying below until we start picking up points because I can’t imagine our lads coping too well with the pressure of being sucked into the bottom 5 or 6.

Maguire scores for Man U. He’s been getting quite a bit of stick recently, so probably needed that.
